Houston - PEKING DUCK

    Peking Cuisine is where I go for Peking duck. Not sure how it compares since I haven't had the dish in a lot of other Houston restaurants. My husband did say he likes the duck at Peking Cuisine better than the duck he had in Beijing, so I guess that's something :). The other dish at Peking Cuisine that is really good is "La Pi" - basically thick clear noodles dressed in garlic, vinegar, chilli, and soy sauce. It's a classic western Chinese dish that I used to have all the time when I was a kid in China. And I haven't found it in any other Chinese restaurants in Houston. So if you go to Peking Cuisine, be sure to try the duck and the La Pi.

        Peking Cuisine is not really the best, but it IS the cheapest. Its a good deal, but the duck is just so-so. Confucious on Bellaire, at Gessner (in the shopping center with Fiesta) is great.

          A favorite duck dish of mine in Houston is the Peking duck at Sinh Sinh.
